International Academic Partners
Universities
Northeastern currently has more than 40 partnerships with leading universities around the world, and we are always open to exploring new partnership opportunities. A typical agreement with a partner university includes student and faculty exchanges, as well as opportunities to engage in joint research, and other projects.
More recently, we have developed two dual degree programs. These programs allow students to start a degree at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ or at a university in their home country, and then transfer to the other institution to finish the program and obtain a diploma from each university.
Community Colleges
Due to its commitment to keeping the cost of education down, ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ partners with community colleges. We have automatic transfer agreements with many community colleges in and around Chicago, and we welcome opportunities to partner with community colleges outside the United States as well.
These agreements guarantee admission to partner school students who complete an Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) degree with at least a 2.5 GPA, permitting the student to transfer into ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ to complete a bachelor's degree program. Community colleges seeking to partner with ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ should contact the Office of International Programs at international-programs@neiu.edu, or by phone (773) 442-4796.
